Default Gains beyond the intake, what next??

Hi,

I just installed an air intake in my xB. It was my first mod ever to a car. It seemed quite easy despite the funny smell. I'm hoping it's due to the fact it's new.
Here is my thread questioning the smell.

Moving forward....what other DIY mods can I do to improve the performance? Would I see better gains with a new header or exhaust?

Thanks,

PF

yes you would improve with both of those i suggest the exhaust before the headers somepeople have had story of horrible noises w intake header and stock exhaust i have the greddy evo 2 exhaust with the YDR short ram intake working on headers now noticed a good amount of gain also you could tighten your throttle cable this offers quiker response and will get you to WOP alot faster good luck with your mods

WOP? wtf?

Normal mods for a car are I/H/E

Intake, header, exhaust.
